Cincinnati Bengals

Mar 1, 2009 | Posted by: roboblogger

It would be absurd if the Cincinnati Bengals go after Michael Vick

Full story: Cincy Jungle

Oh no, we fear that Chick Ludwig may have lost his mind. While talking about backup quarterbacks, Ludwig says that the Bengals need a quarterback behind Carson Palmer that can escape .

Maybe a good test of Vick's skills would be to drop him into the middle of a PETA rally. If he escaped without too much injury, he might have a chance on the football field as a punt returner.

I wish cincinnati would sign Vick becuase I believe Vick would give Palmer a qb lesson.Palmer is so garbage, he is 1 dimensional, he can't scramble, he's not mobile and he spend most of his drives going 3 and out, at least with Vick he could throw on the run,he can scramble, he'll be able to locate our talented receivers and he'd be able to get yards hisself, I think he'd bring a lot to cincinnati and our team would be explosive as ever, forget that frankenstein built qb who stand in the back and get sacked all game
Vick deserves nothing

nothing
As a player, you’d laugh at your boss if you got fined for skipping a film session.

And as a fan, you’d revoke your season tickets. Vick’s name is tainted for a reason.

Not even the witty marketing team at Geico could spin this signing into a positive.

Vick’s crime was too raw and too public for the Joe Fan to embrace.

Even beyond the moral dilemma, the game has changed over the past few years. There is a less and less demand for running quarterbacks. The rapid evolution of two-back systems and West Coast-offense hybrids has marginalized the run-first quarterback. It’s why Vince Young was ousted by 36-year old Kerry Collins. It’s why the Minnesota Vikings are doing everything in their power - signing Sage Rosenfels, recruiting Brett Favre - to not start Tarvaris Jackson. And it’s why former-No. 1 pick Alex Smith is battling with...drum roll, please...Shaun Hill in San Francisco.

The demand for cerebral quarterbacks capable of dissecting a defense is higher than ever.

Vick failed to throw for 3,000 yards - hardly a milestone - in each of his six years with the Falcons. For all of his herculean arm strength, he has the accuracy of Shaq at the foul line. Every pass is a laser. No touch, no precision. Through his entire career, Vick never matured as a passer. Atlanta kept drafting receivers like Roddy White and Michael Jenkins, but Vick never figured it out. In one season, Matt Ryan did. Vick’s replacement threw for 3,440 yards and 16 touchdowns to key an improbable run to the playoffs last season.

Never been to the slammer myself, but something tells me one year in prison didn’t exactly do wonders for Vick’s passing ability.“The Longest Yard” was a movie, not real life. At best, Vick is a faster Kordell Stewart at this point.

And please, save the ‘slash’ plea. Everyone these days thinks freakish athletes will erupt into gimmicky ‘slash’ roles, where they can bob ‘n weave through defenses off pitches, hitches and other Ringling Brother quirks. Doodling Vick into X ‘n Os on paper sure can raise a coach’s adrenaline. But saying that Vick will electrify an offense in a ‘Wildcat’ type of offense is wishful thinking.

Michael Vick is a disgrace to himself, the NFL, Virginia Tech, and anyone associated with him. He should NEVER be allowed back in the NFL. If he is allowed to play again I will certainly NEVER watch another game or spend another nickel on tickets, souvenirs, or anything associated with the NFL.
